when connecting to \\19x.x.x and seeing the printers folder, you are
connecting to the server service not the LPD service. You do not need to
load additional services to open the printers folder over the ip address.
To view jobs over LPD you must use the lpq command. To submit jobs to LPD
you must use the lpr command. I'd say LPD does not support the localhost
IP. Anyone with more info on this can jump in.
lpq -S 127.0.0.1 -P hp
Windows LPD Server
Error: specified printer does not exist
lpq -S system2 -P hp
Windows LPD Server
Printer \\10.198.9.33\hp (Paused)
